Overview

• Multiple outlets on August 19 report Disney and Lucasfilm are considering reviving or releasing the finished episodes, with no official confirmation.
• Conceived by George Lucas and Seth Green, Detours was a non-canon comedy set between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope.
• The production completed 39 episodes and prepared scripts for 62 more before being vaulted.
• Disney shelved the show after acquiring Lucasfilm, citing concerns about launching a parody alongside a new trilogy.
• Notable contributors include Andy Richter and Weird Al Yankovic, and supporters argue a release would be low cost and reintroduce a lighter tone, with one creator calling it “the best television show no one has ever seen.”
